This morning, I recieved an email from a YouTube user responding to a comment I made regarding John McCain's appearence on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. In the comment, which discussed gay marriage, I basically said that McCain was feeling uncomfortable over the topic, especially when other issues like the right to vote for women and minorities were mentioned. In the email response I read a six-letter word that no member of the LGBT community should hear. It is a word as awful as another six-letter word which often describes an African American. The word read "->-bleeped-<-got", not once but twice, in a much degrading sentence.
